Time for a change

Will you have faith and trust God when there comes a time for a change, or just remain in your comfort zone? Gods way may not always be comfortable.

Genesis 12:1-3 “Now the Lord had said to Abram: Get out of your country, From your family And from your father’s house, To a land that I will show you. 2 I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

Perfect Timing

“Perfect Timing”

Isaiah 40:31“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” (KJV)

As I was out on errands one morning, I noticed several cars at a popular coffee shop waiting in line at a drive thru to place an order. Driving down the road further, I again noticed several vehicles waiting in line at an ATM machine.

I began to think about how much time a person spends waiting to get what they want.

We wait:

  • In line at fast food restaurants
  • Or inside of a restaurant, after we have placed our order with the server
  • In line to pay for our groceries
  • At the doctor’s or the dentist’s office
  • At busy intersections for the light to change to green
  • For someone to pull out of a parking space that is close to the entrance of a store

Sometimes we wait patiently, and sometimes we become impatient when what or who we are waiting for is not there at the time we want it.

There is a difference between waiting for people, places or things, and waiting on God. When we wait for people, places or things, most of the time we can get what we want when we want it.

The difference when we wait on God, is God’s timing and His provision, and we don’t always get what we want when we want it. But “What’s the rush?”

I have often heard people make the statement “God may not be there when you want Him, but He’s always on time.”

Ecclesiastes 3:1“To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:” (KJV)

God’s timing is always “perfect timing.” He is never too early, and He is never too late. Often times the problem that we have when we are waiting on God is, we want God to move when we want Him to move.

2 Peter 3:8 “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.” (KJV)

Because He is a loving God and a concerned father, He always wants what’s best for His people.

Isaiah 40:31 “But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” (KJV)

Waiting on God has benefits that we can only get from Him:

  • He renews our strength
  • We mount up with wings that enable us to soar effortlessly
  • We do not get weary when we run
  • When we walk, we do not faint

Psalm 27:14 “Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.” (KJV)

“Aba Father, thank you for the “perfect timing” that you have for your people. You are omniscient and know exactly what your people need, and when they should have it. We wait on you O God, with great expectations, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Repentance

2 Chronicles 7:14 “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” (KJV)

Repentance is a turning away from sin, disobedience, living in rebellion, and turning back to living by God’s standards.

Unlimited Access

We have unlimited access to God. 24/7 access at any time of the day. There is no time structure. God is always available and never sleeps or slumbers.

The veil (some say curtain) in the temple of Jerusalem that separated the holy place from the holy of holies, which contained the Ark of the Covenant. Matthew 27:51

This veil was made of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and fine linen thread.

The tearing of the veil is said to have had several different meanings, including:

·      Judgment on the temple system

·      New access to the father in Christ

·      Christ’s entrance into the heavenlies

·      The start of a new relationship with God

God is always available.

46 God is our refuge and strength,
A[a] very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear,
Even though the earth be removed,
And though the mountains be carried into the [b]midst of the sea;
Though its waters roar and be troubled,
Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah
Psalms 46 – New King James Version
